Aluminium frame with built-in battery. The battery can be charged directly through the frame, or can be removed from its housing to be recharged at home or at work. 20" frame compatible with B'Twin 300 pannier rack.

Promax aluminium V-Brake callipers provide powerful, progressive braking.
Aluminium levers with rubber pads for added comfort. Braking cuts out electric assistance.
Remember: The brake pads on electrically-assisted bikes wear down more quickly than a classic bike due to the weight and power of the motor.

Accessories/Equipment

Battery-powered front and rear lights with handlebar control.

Care tips

Tyres lose pressure over time. This is normal since bike inner tubes are slightly porous. Don't forget to check your tyre pressure regularly. Riding with under inflated tyres reduces the life of your battery, requires more pedalling effort and increases the risk of punctures. Before performing any work on your electric bike (cleaning, electrical or mechanical maintenance), you must turn off your electric bike and remove the battery.

Storage advice

B’Twin recommends charging the battery after each ride. If it is flat, charge it as soon as possible. Irreparable damage may occur if the battery remains flat for too long.

Product catchline

The lightest (18.6 kg), the most dynamic (removable battery built into the frame), and the easiest to store, of all of our electric bicycles.

This is a great E-Bike, its very nippy and the bike is fairly light to carry. Its easy to fold up and to get the battery out of the centre post. I have not had it long but the battery charge does seem to last longer than my last E-Bike that i had from Halfords. I use the bike every day to go swimming and its a very pleasant experience and certainly helps on the hills.

Speed, easy to fold, and distance it travels.

With having asthma my bike riding activities were not enjoyable. Since getting my new electric assist bike I no longer think twice about going out. The hills are really easy to manage and I can keep up with my husband. The bike is so easy to use and very comfortable to ride. The fact that it folds down with great ease is a bonus so I can take it on long trips.

Very easy to use and rides real nice on the road

Bought this as a present for my mother. She loves it - except that she found the supplied seat very uncomfortable. Swapped seat for something more padded. She's now very pleased. Too soon to say much more
